Centre for Neuropsychopharmacology

The Centre for Neuropsychopharmacology conducts pioneering research into neuropsychiatric disorders merging pharmacological approaches with state-of-the-art imaging techniques – PET, MR and MEG. The particular emphasis is on brain disorders such as addiction, dementia and affective disorders. The Centre is multidisciplinary with psychiatrists, cognitive neuroscientists, methodologists and pharmacologists in addition to a range of PhD students.

There are close links with Imanova where the group conduct PET and MR imaging studies and The Cardiff University Brain Research Imaging Centre for MEG and MR. The psychiatrists also work within Central North West London NHS Foundation Trust from which we recruit for our imaging studies.
